Spring Break Carrie

It is that time of year... Spring Break Carrie has arrived. Spring Break Carrie, SBC (not to be confused with the Springfield Ballet Company) is a lot like Summer Time Carrie, STC (again not to be confused with the Springfield Theatre Centre) . Both are happy, relaxed, and well read. Both spend their days pleasurably cleaning and cooking. Both stay up late and sleep in late. Both enjoy the countless stories and songs from the A Team. School Year Carrie also enjoys stories and songs from the A Team, but would prefer the condensed version with LONG pauses in between. Both are pleasant people.

The big difference between SBC and STC is the urgency at which SBC gets things done. SBC knows she is only here for a short time, while STC gets to hang out a little longer. SBC makes lists and works to check them off. STC makes lists and loses them. SBC is an overachiever while STC just squeaks by. SBC isn't someone I would want to hang out with, but STC is...

SBC has been busy making her list for the week. She has already started checking things off the list and is in the process of completing others.

1.  Read. Start AND finish a book. Good news! I went the the library last Thrusday. I have two books ready to go. In fact I am 1/3 of the way through one of them!

2.  Write. Either a blog post or a Camp Nanowrimo story  Looks like I am killing that one right now!

3.  Lose 30 Lbs This is where we get to the unrealistic portion of the list...

4.  Exercise once a day  I have actually done this! Friday Skyzone, Saturday Beachbody Yoga, Sunday Beachbody Yoga

5.  Drink water Ugh... why is this so hard?

6.  Clean the house March was rough on our house! I wasn't home much and things got out of control fast. It takes two adults constantly on top of things to keep this place afloat. 

7.  Clean the DVR Again, March was rough on the DVR.

8.  Eat all the Easter candy I am killing this one! I am owning that candy and making it my bi food. In fact, I might run to the store tomorrow and get more. This will probably ruin number 3, maybe...

9.  Go to a movie during the day Tomorrow A3 are going to see Beauty and the Beast while the others are at school and work. 

10. Eat out once, cook the rest I have been to the store, meals are planned, I am ready to cook. I actually love cooking meals when I have time!

SBC has set her goals high. She is prepared to work to achieve them. She also knows if she falls short of completing her list STC will be here in 6 short weeks.

Happy Spring Break!
